Hi a quick one, I have just looked at my receipt for todays shop at Morrison's match and more and it states I received 1340 points today for shop, However I received a pack of Disney cards for free due to the over £40 spend promotion, this shows on my receipt as £3.00 then £3.00 taken off.


What im wondering is will having the Disney cards affect how many points I would have got?


Also any good tips on how best to work the system to maximise the amount of points you receive each shop?


thanks all


:)

    AFAIK, M&M points are only used to exchange for £5 vouchers. You get these automatically the next time you shop, after your balance has reached 5000 points.

    AFAIK2: Unless the Disney cards were a price match or had a specific points offer on them, then paying for them and receiving a refund will make no difference to the points awarded (i.e. zero).

    It's price match, so work it just like any other price match scheme. i.e. buy things in Morrisons that you could get cheaper in another store, just to get the points. Don't forget to split your shopping into two baskets.

    You can also get extra points for buying certain things, or multiples of things. So you can get extra points for buying things you don't want or don't need.

    Hi Joe,


    yeah ive started to split the shop into 2, ive been putting all the reduced or sale items through together and all of the non promotional products through in the other, is this what you mean by splitting the basket?


    thanks
